    Our server Stewart gave the best recommendations and was so attentive! We came to celebrate our anniversary and loved the little touch of putting “Happy Anniversary!” on our menus. The food was delicious and we left perfectly full but it was really the service that blew us away. We will definitely be back! ♥️

    Took the train into Sacramento, walked to the old Sac area and had lunch on the Delta King pilothouse restaurant. It was a wonderful day, beautiful out and the food, service and ambience were spectacular! Right on the water on a boat. We had fun watching the seals entertain us. Definitely and highly recommend.
